About the event:
This year’s event will feature Terry Stevenson as Master of Ceremonies and the return of nationally known ventriloquist and comedian Taylor Mason, whose clean, quick-witted humor has delighted audiences across the country. He also won Star Search in 1991! Mason, a high school classmate of Hope House’s executive director, is known for incorporating audience connection into his act—sometimes even poking good-natured fun at familiar faces onstage.
The fundraiser supports local families experiencing homelessness and helps sustain Hope House’s mission, now in its 21st year.
In addition to the comedy show, the popular Charcuterie Board Showdown will return, offering attendees the chance to sample and vote on some of the most creative and flavorful boards crafted by talented individuals and businesses from around the county. The evening will also include a wide array of raffle baskets donated by generous Manitowoc County businesses, adding another opportunity for guests to support families in need.
